The year is 1602, and strange things are stirring in England. In the service of Queen Elizabeth, court magician Dr. Stephen Strange senses that the bizarre weather plaguing the skies above is not of natural origin. Her majesty's premier spy, Sir Nicholas Fury, fends off an assassination attempt on the Queen by winged warriors rumored to be in service to a mad despot named Doom.

A Match Made in Heaven.......2007-09-06

Famed comic writer and Hugo winning novelist Neil Gaiman gets the opportunity to use 40 plus years of Marvel Comic's history to "re-create" Marvel's universe in, that's right, 1602. What more could you want?

Apparently nothing. Mr. Gaiman brings to bear the wit, wisdom and genius he applied to the creation of American Gods and Sandman. Conversely, he has the whole Marvel Universe to pick and choose elements from! Not a bad sandbox.

There is nothing amiss here: great storytelling, beautiful art and immense respect for what has gone before (or comes after, rather), 1602 deserves that over-worn phrase, tour-de-force.

In true collaboration with the artist Andy Kubert, Mr. Gaiman does not retell a displaced story but rather sets the beginnings 4 centuries into the past and tells his own story. The characters are familiar to Marvel fans, and yet they are quite different.

I would be remiss if I did not mention the cover/color work of Richard Isanove; it sets the mood for the entire story.

I apologize if you were expecting details but I won't spoil the read. Suffice it to say that if you love Marvel and you love Mr. Gaiman, you will love this book!

One of the finest graphic novels created.......2007-09-04

Neil Gaiman, masterful creator of the Sandman graphic novels and one of the preeminent comic book and urban fantasy writers alive. This is a hardbound compilation of his award winning 1602 comic book series for Marvel. It takes some of Marvel's inconic superheroes and reimagines them (or transposes them) in an alternate reality in which the heroes of Marvel exist in the melieu of Queen Elizabeth I.

It is one of the best graphic novels written and holds a place of honor among other greats such as League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Dark Night Returns, From Hell and of course, the Sandman.

If you are a Neil Gaiman fan this is a MUST have.

The Marvel Universe Enters 1602 - Excellent Twist Of Comic Book Genius!.......2007-07-17

Author Neil Gaiman (Sandman) takes the Marvel Universe and sets it in England in the year 1602 and the first thing you notice is that even with the twist of character and composition, all the Marvel icons stand tall in their new guises. Redefining. With all of the Marvel tie-in, upheaval, alternate universe attempts (Age Of Apocalypse, House Of M, Days Of Future Past, Civil War) to get people to buy more titles to see their favorite characters in different situations, 1602 is one of the better storylines, if not the actual best. Gaiman knows how to weave a coherent, thought-provoking story and that counts for a lot. Nicolas Fury is the Queen's Protector and Doctor Stephen Strange is her Court Physician in this tale of deceit and betrayal. Strange weather is happening all over the world. The end times seem near. A secret treasure (weapon?) is being sent from Jerusalem to England by the Templars to help save the world. Suddenly the Queen is assassinated by a contraption devised by Count Otto Von Doom and everything is thrown into chaos as the King James of Scotland marches forward to caputre the empty throne and to add the crown of England to his own. Determined to cast out or destroy the Witchbreed (Mutantkind), James conspires with the mysterious Grand Inquisitor in Spain (Magneto) to bring about his new reign with absolute domination. Meanwhile, Count Otto Von Doom is toying around with the captured Templar treasure in an attempt to rule the world. Filled with such characters as the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Peter Parker (Parquagh) Matthew Murdock (Daredevil) and a host of others, 1602 is an eloquent, refreshing rendering of the same old characters. Riveting. One that I would definitely read again.

Dig it!

Fun story, beautiful art.......2007-06-08

Marvel 1602 was originally released as an 8 issue mini-series. This book collects those issues into a beautifully bound hardcover edition with a very nice cover. In addition, it contains some bonus material including a note by Neil Gaiman in which he reflects on what he wanted to accomplish with the story and how the book came into being. On top of that, notes from the production of each issue are also included.

As far as the story goes, it's a fun tale that imagines what if the Marvel superheroes came into being in the world of 1602. Gaiman does a really nice job of keeping the characters true to who they are, while putting them into the earlier time period. I especially liked his take on Peter Parker, who we see before his transformation into Spider-Man as the shy and frightened young man. I also liked what Gaiman did with Daredevil, who was much more playful than he has become since Frank Miller reimagined the character.

The artwork is absolutely beautiful. There are no throwaway panels to be found. Each panel is painstakingly detailed and maintains the story nicely. The printing in his hardcover edition is also excellent. Really, it's just a pleasure to have this in my collection. I love it!

sincerely,
R.C.

Good history tie-in.......2007-05-08

This story is a triumph by Neil Gaiman. He does an excellent job translating Marvel characters into a time in the past. I use this novel to teach students about character traits and development.

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly Starred Review. The always inventive Gaiman has concocted an unlikely but fantastically successful superhero comic that transfers Marvel's classic characters to the Elizabethan period. Nick Fury is still a lethal government operative, but now he's an adviser to Queen Elizabeth. Her Majesty is equally reliant on magician and doctor Stephen Strange. X-Men mentor Charles Xavier still shepherds a band of mutant teens, only now he's called Carlos Javier, and the mutants are known, and mistrusted, as "witchbreed." Carlos's mysterious nemesis has taken on a new job: grand inquisitor of the Spanish Inquisition. Peter Parker (here "Parquah") is still a confused but well-meaning teenager who has yet to be bitten by a radioactive spider. Placed in a period landscape (rendered in rich, painterly panels by illustrator Kubert and digital painter Richard Isanove), these familiar characters must grapple with the issues of the day, chief among them the machinations of the evil King James of Scotland. And, in classic superhero style, they must save the world. The improbable combination works remarkably well, as the superheroes' strange abilities adapt to Elizabethan culture. This glorious adventure is peppered with Scott McKowen's gorgeous, moody cover-art woodcuts. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Book Description

The last several decades have witnessed major restructurings—economic, political, and cultural—in the international arena. The depth and scope of these changes have prompted anthropologists to rethink many of their most basic assumptions, to problematize issues that have long gone unexamined, and to grapple with new and unique problems. Doing so has left the discipline profoundly unsettled. Existing standards of scholarship and research methodologies have come under attack, key conceptual categories have been called into question, and truths once considered secure have been subjected to severe scrutiny and even ridicule.

Seizing upon the opportunity afforded by the contemporary conjuncture of disciplinary crisis and redefinition, this book raises questions about two interrelated aspects of historical process and academic production. The volume contributes to ongoing debates about the degree to which the developments of recent decades represent the advent of a new historical era, a rupture with the past that requires new conceptualizations and logics in order to be understood. In confronting this question, the contributors to this volume have assembled a range of materials that place the present period of reconstruction in the context of a broader history and geography of other, related restructurings.

Locating Capitalism in Time and Space also raises questions about the degree to which the scholarship of recent decades represents a qualitative break with that of the past. At issue here is whether one understands the history of academic production as a linear process of intellectual growth punctuated by major breakthroughs in understanding, or as a political process structured by the same kinds of inequalities and struggles that characterize the social worlds that are the object of anthropological analysis.

Book Description

Consumerism is increasingly recognized as a key factor in the modern world. The global economy, it has been said, is driven as much by taste as technology. Yet consumerism has seldom been studied as a global overlay or incipient world institution. Adshead argues that consumerism began in an interaction between Europe and China during the Great Discoveries. A comparison of its subsequent development in both west and east highlights both the unity and the diversity of consumerism. What are presented here are less the details of consumption than the patterns of it, and the reasons, conscious and unconscious, for them.

It provokes your thinking about the future. .......2005-01-27

I read this book because it's one of the assignments of my Communication Planning class. Personally, I don't think this book is much related to the focus of the class- futures forecasting and planning in telecommunications. However, it gives you ideas about what future may be like and invokes questions regarding how can human deal with it from 4 aspects- reality, mind, embodiment, and posthumanity. As my background is more engineering and computer science related, I found this book a bit difficult and at the same time interesting to read because it talks about "philosophies" quite a lot. But the author Brain Cooney introduced the ideas from everyday examples, for instance, the movies The Matrix and Contact. The author many times used dialogues to convey his ideas and form provoking questions at the reflection part.

The book proposed many provoking questions, such as "Can artificial functional equivalents of human persons be treated as having our moral and political rights?" The author even helped reader's thinking when giving questions. For example, under the discussion of embodiment, the author asked "Would we want to say that the bionic components of our bodies are not parts of a living body because they are not composed of tissues that are assemblies of cells? Yet we say that cells are alive, even though their parts are not........ If not, can a being have a conscious mind and not be alive? Or, paradoxically, is there some nonbiological kind of "life"?"

This book is about technological forecasting, especially in topics about bionic body and artificial intelligence and discusses their impacts to human from philosophy aspect by the help of some well known movies and TV programs. It's very readable for non-philosophy major students. One of the questions I like most is: "If there were any prospect of interaction with the alien civilization, would that prospect alone risk a collapse of human confidence, self-respect, and even civilization? Not necessarily, but there won't be much time to plan for the eventuality if it simply takes us by surprise sometime soon". This question highlight why we need to do futures forecasting and planning- to be prepared for the possible futures.

Unless you are a philosophy major and know about technological forecasting, you will most likely find this book very interesting.

A Fearsome Portrait of Incredible Mismanagement.......2005-01-19

The Judy Garland Show consisted of twenty-six shows that aired in the CBS Sunday night line up in the 1963-1964 season. The network considered it an immediate and expensive failure and the series was canceled as soon as contractual obligation allowed. Isolated exceptions aside, the series was neither syndicated nor re-run and, with the exception of various "art" screenings it seemed to vanish completely.

Nonetheless, The Judy Garland remains one of the single most discussed and written-about series in broadcast history. Garland biographies aside, it is inevitably touched upon--and often focused upon--in histories of broadcast television, where it is usually held up as an example of how even the greatest talents, biggest budgets, and best intentions can be exploded by mismanagement, network politics, and in some instances pure spite.

Two major publications have focused on the series. The first was the 1970 OVER THE RAINBOW WITH JUDY GARLAND ON THE DAWN PATROL by Mel Torme, the respected singer-songwriter-composer, who contracted to write and arrange special musical material and make three guest appearances during the first season. Torme places blame for the series' failure squarely upon the shoulders of Garland herself, painting a frightening portrait of a greatly talented but extremely unstable and often vicious star self-destructing through booze and pills and determined to drag all those around her down with her. Although denounced as grossly inaccurate by many associated with the series, it was for many years generally accepted as authoritative.

The second was 1990's RAINBOW'S END by Coyne Steven Sanders. Amassed from meticulous research and seventy-five interviews with individuals directly involved in the series, it explodes DAWN PATROL with the force of an atomic bomb. Sanders freely acknowledges that Garland was a tempestuous individual with profound chemical dependencies--but his interview subjects note that, far from being difficult, she actually withstood a great deal more unpleasantness from others than she actually caused herself.

What ultimately emerges is a story of Garland's mismanagement, first at the hands of agents Begelman and Fields, then at the hands of such employees as Mel Torme, but ultimately and most destructively at the hands of CBS executives James Aubrey and Hunt Stromberg--each with their own self-serving agendas and all determined to drain The Judy Garland Show to further them. It is also a story of great talents and opportunities simply thrown away.

With the advent of DVD, The Judy Garland Show at last began to reach a wide audience, and the actual product bears out Sanders' contentions. At its best, it was extraordinary, offering not only Garland very near the peak of her vocal talents, but a host of great performers that read like a Who's Who of 1960s show business--June Allyson, Tony Bennett, Vic Damone, Bobbin Darrin, Lena Horne, Ethel Merman, Peggy Lee, Jane Powell, and Barbra Streisand, to name but the most obvious, most of whom Sanders interviews to great effect. But the program was "fiddled to death" by constant CBS reformatting, too often saddled with inept writing and insipid guest stars booked on studio demand, and ultimately unable to establish any consistent formula acceptable to both Garland and CBS.

According to Sanders, Garland did indeed spiral out of control toward the end of the series--but given the madhouse into which she was thrown it is amazing that she did not run screaming down the street at the very beginning. And, as Sanders so astutely points out, she has had the last laugh after all. Few series television programs of the early 1960s, including those that bested The Judy Garland show in ratings, have survived in the public memory. But The Judy Garland Show, for all its flaws and faults, seems to become more greatly respected with each passing year.

After reading Sander's meticulously documented assessment of The Judy Garland Show, you'll never again look at broadcast television with quite the same eye. Very strongly recommended, not only for Garland fans, but for any one with an interest in the medium.

GFT, Amazon Reviewer

A must read for any Garland fan.......2004-07-16

This book, which accompanies the box set (Vol 1) of Judy's TV series, is an invaluable resource for any serious Judy Garland fan. The writing is clear and concise, the approach is objective (but with great empathy for Judy), and the research conducted by the author is impressive. Until this book was written, the only documented history of this landmark TV show was the book written by Mel Torme, which was mean-spirited and by no means a balanced account of what really went on. Congratulations and much gratitude to Mr. Sanders for a very memorable read.

Judy Garland in the Dream Factory.......1999-11-16

Coyne Steven Sanders is, undeniably, _under_ the rainbow with this treatment of Ms. Judy Garland. In a good sense. First, one must respond to the treatment here of Micky Rooney, without whom we would still probably be responding to Ms. Garland in the same way. In the birth of the cliche, there is a moment when the idea itself is not a cliche but is instead an archetype. In this way cliches are to be honored as original ideas so fitting to such a large number of {events} that they become, through no fault of their own, a cliche. Sadly, this treatment of Micky Rooney in relation to Ms. Garland does not recognize the fact that Mr.Rooney was a cliche _from the beginning_. He personified the cliche by occupying one from the moment he embarked on his character--the same wide-eyed, over-eager, lifelessly hyperbolic grating dunce he dusted off every time the cameras were stupid enough to have him within their frame. If only Steven Sanders would have bitten into this none-too-tender tendril of the gas that was Micky Rooney! Instead, it is waived away like a bad odor that the reader imagined should have dissipated 5 minutes earlier. By failing to contextualize Ms. Garland within this necessary border, Coyne Steven Sanders renders a full quarter of this book into a wide pie of plums and pits; into a full line of outergarments best suited for intemperate climes. Three cheers for Coyne! Because, after all, this author is able to, in this book, show us why we should all, as I do, love Judy Garland with each breath we take. I love her. Yes. I love this book, and I love Judy Garland.

THIS ONE SHOWS THE REAL 'JUDY'!!!!.......1999-03-31

Over the years I have read every book about JUDY and excluding the 'book' written by Mel Torme' many have been decent. But, not until this book has the talent, the class, the POWER that was JUDY GARLAND been properly conveyed!The book is informative about what went on in front of and behind the scenes of THE JUDY GARLAND SHOW. But also, it shows how at certain points JUDY wanted certain things done a certain way for a specific reason!!! Case in point, her singing 'THE BATTLE HYMM OF THE REPUBLIC'. She knew why it had to be done, she knew how it had to be done, and she knew that it had to be done!!!! AND SHE DID IT!!!! And what 'we' see on video during that performance is what JUDY was, is, and always will be!!! A performer who should have been left to do what she did-SING!And reading this book, you'll see why she is what she is, and how she got what will always be hers! LEGEND!!!!

Incredible reading.......1999-03-24

An incisive, detailed look at The Judy Garland Show. Blows away the myth that Ms. Garland was the psycho-tornado that destroyed the show. A wonderful book with many pictures, showing Ms. Garland at the peak of her performing abilities. A rare, realistic look at Judy Garland; the person and performer. A good buy!

Book Description

Computer Evidence: Collection and Preservation teaches law enforcement and computer forensics investigators how to identify, collect, and maintain digital artifacts to preserve their reliability for admission as evidence. The book focuses on collection and preservation because these two phases of computer forensics are the most critical to evidence acceptance, but are not thoroughly covered in text or courses. Throughout the book, a constant eye is kept on evidence dynamics and the impact investigators can have on data integrity while collecting evidence. The simple act of a computer forensics investigator shutting down a suspect's computer changes the state of the computer as well as many of its files, so a good understanding of evidence dynamics is essential when doing computer forensics work. Broken up into five parts, Computer Forensics & Evidence Dynamics, Information Systems, Data Storage Systems & Media, Artifact Collection, and Archiving & Maintaining Evidence, the book places specific focus on how investigators and their tools are interacting with digital evidence. By reading and using this task-oriented guide, computer forensics investigators will be able to ensure case integrity during the most crucial phases of the computer forensics process.

The Collection and Preservation of Digital Evidence.......2007-03-13

At this time I am about halfway through the book and finding it very informative and very interesting. It covers a lot of technical information which is normally pretty boring but I am having a hard time putting it down. Highly recommend this as require reading for the ameture forensic computer examiner.

THE CSI OF COMPUTER EVIDENCE!!.......2006-06-11

Are you a law enforcement officer, system administrator, IT professional, legal professional or a computer forensics student? If you are, this book is for you! Author Christopher LT Brown, has done an outstanding job of writing a great book by focusing on the first two phases of the computer forensics process: computer evidence collection and preservation.

Brown, begins by introducing the reader to the essential elements of computer forensics.
Next, the author discusses the rules of evidence, existing computer-related case law, and regulation as a basis of understanding the nature of computer evidence in court. Then, he provides information about evidence dynamics, which is defined as anything that effects evidence in any way. The author continues by presenting the key components to knowing where data can be found within an organization's infrastructure. In addition, the author shows you how an organization's information architecture can be as diverse as a city's street's. He also examines the volatility of digital data in physical memory and storage. Next, the author explains the key components of the IDE,SIDE, and SCSI standards as they pertain to evidence collection. Then, he describes advanced physical storage methods in use today. The author also examines some of the many types and formats of removable media including flash cards and optical media. In addition, the author next describes one of the most important components of any computer forensics investigation: tools preparation and documentation. He also shows you how volatile data can be difficult to capture in a forensically sound fashion. Next, the author describes how methodologies used in computer forensics can be as varied as the systems being imaged. Then, he shows you how the collection of evidence from large computer systems can be challenging to any investigator. The author continues by walking the reader through different design options to get the most out of their hardware configuration in the field and back in the lab. In addition, he shows you how today's computer evidence investigators rarely work from a single forensics workstation. Finally, he discusses areas for further study in computer forensics such as analysis and presentation of evidence in court.

This most excellent book uses evidence dynamics at the center of its approach to show the reader what forces act on data during evidence identification, collection and storage. What's most important though, is that this book will help guide the computer forensics investigator in ensuring case integrity during the most crucial phases of the computer forensics process.

The Most Comprehensive Book on the Subject.......2005-11-28

This is a timely book as we are hearing more and more about the U.S. military and intelligence agencies collecting the computers used by terrorists. This same trend is appearing in conventional law enforcement. The amount of information that can be stored on a computer is, of course huge, also important is the transient: What web site is the computer viewing? What e-mail system is on-line? What can be gotten from the router being used?

This book goes into every aspect of getting forensics information off of a computer. It starts with examining the computer, if it is on, then extracting the information from places like temporary internet storage. Of course there's a lot that needs to be done with the hard drive, and if you can find back up disks, tapes or memory devices.

In addition, there are hardware and software tools that can be used to extract information from the system. A general coverage of these is given, along with sources. Some of these are included on the CD-ROM included with the book.

This book is intended for use in a legal environment, so there is discussion on maintaining the chain of evidence to ensure that it doesn't get thrown out of court. Should you be on the other side in a trial, this gives you something to ask of the investigators to be sure that they have followed the rules.

Basically this is the most complete, most thorough book on the subject written by one of the experts in the business.

Great resource.......2005-11-24

It seems that a lot of books on forensics concentrate on making a disk image of the hard drive being examined, filtering the information on the disk, and presenting it in proper format for court use. However, collecting and preserving the evidence is much more than imaging the hard disk. If the computer is still on then evidence may be in memory, potential evidence may be on routers, proxy servers, etc. This book details this part of forensic evidence gathering, an area often just skimmed over in other computer forensics texts. This is a critical aspect of investigation because it does not matter how well your filtering works and how much evidence you obtain if your data preservation was not done correctly and the evidence is inadmissible in court.

Evidence dynamics is covered in detail and the author does a better job of this than any other forensics book I have read. Evidence dynamics is how to keep the evidence from disappearing or changing. Just the act of shutting down a computer changes temporary files, open processes, swap file information, and many other items that may be necessary for a thorough investigation. Even the appendixes are valuable and contain several excellent sample forms including chain of custody, evidence collection, and evidence access worksheets. If you are involved in either the collection or the maintenance of data for a potential court case then you will be interested in this book. Alternatively, if you are trying to discredit an expert witness then the information presented here may also provide areas of attack. Either way Computer Evidence Collection and Preservation is highly recommended.
